How about bsh1 and Virutoso both have the same power?
So basically both are in-charge.

Who do you think will Edson Barboza vs Justin Gaethje? (Going with Justin)
How about JoshEmmett vs MichaelJohnson? (Going with Johnson)
How about KarolinaKowalkiewicz vs MichelleWaterson? (Going with Karolina)
These are the fights that interest. Hopefully you watch UFC.

Here is batman beating you up:
Enjoy

My god, how can i forget Samurai Champloo... that series was the shizzel. 
It was really fun to watch. I like Cowboy more but Samurai can definitely compete with Cowboy.

 
I'm kinda like you with Death Note, but i watched it a second time and it's pretty cool. I was mad at some deaths, i won't spoil anything, but overall it was interesting. 
The interest waves thin for me when both characters do things unimaginable and the series appears as it self realistic. If we remove the death note then that would be more realistic than a fantastical version of reality. Maybe I had the wrong mindset but it was so condescending when they were trying to give exposition or trying to explain something. Example would be when the main characters tells us how he keeps the Death Note safe. There are others but Titanium might get annoyed if I point out another example.

O-O... I hope your dog dies.
I don't have a dog so you lose.

Naruto is that when it comes to anime.  It's easy to hate on popular things, particularly when you get deeper into a genre, but so much easier to love them along with the masses.
Yeah it is easy to follow the crowd then it is to find your own things you like. My problem with Naruto is Naruto. He is so unlikable. He is given so much power, very little to work for and somehow he is the greatest ninja alive. The show was never about hard-work it was about people who are gifted (inherited power from their family) which train as well. Which is why Rock Lee is not the main character or even relevant in Shippuden (watched most of it when they were kids but watch shippuden videos on YouTube). There is a video which is really good at addressing the problems of Naruto. If you don't want what you like to be tested don't watch it but it can reinforce your liking of Naruto if he is wrong or might just feel how I feel. It is 42 minutes long. Don't complain to me if it too long complain to him in the comment section.

I don't think so. I've seen a couple or maybe one or two other Animes where the characters fight inside machines... but i don't recall this one. Is it good? 
My favourite. Don't know if other people would like it.

It is seriously intense... get to the last episode and it will blow your mind.  I have not seen a show like that ever or since.
I do like stories that are not shite so I should watch it.

Original.  I'll check out the reboot.
It follows the manga. The original was going on while the manga was and at some point the manga was released later than the episodic series which meant they had to come up with what happens next. Brotherhood follows the manga and most people say it is the best version. I have only watched Brotherhood and I liked it.

Subjective stuff, fine. You don't like intelligent storylines I get it.
Tell me what is objectively good about Death Note?
Intelligence that happens to find them both the answers they want. I don't dislike intelligence instead hardly any risk. Light was being cocky but wasn't enough when you have a team dedicated to telling the audience the most over-the-top scenario in keeping the death note safe (the draw where the Death Note is)

huge error. death note is an absolute masterpiece of a 2-season-only series. It is the most intricate storyline and character development I have ever seen a series do, let alone an anime.
Clearly missing unlikable characters. Light is a pr*ck. L is weird. Both of them supremely high intellect and I can't get into to it when they have all the answers right in front of them. L simply knows all when I stopped watching it when they were playing tennis. I heard spoilers which made the payoff bad because of it. 
Liked Season 1 theme song.

 Full Metal Alchemist!
Brotherhood or the other one? If you watched the first one you should watch Brotherhood.


Planning on watching death not soon.

It comes under threat and abuse. I know, its  absolutely ridiculous. Telling someone you will report them or even telling your abuser that you have reported them comes under threats and abuse.

No but know it's an anime.  Are you a fan?
I have watched Cowboy Bebop, Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood, One Punch Man, Death Note (part of it didn't like it), Neon Genesis Evangelion, Samurai Champloo. 
That is it.
Correction... how big of a fan are you?

Do not threaten her with mod action, you will get things backfiring onto you. Report it and do not say you are. Don't ask me why, those are the rules.
Her?
Not mod action. I hope with flagging her someone will find it to get her banned. 
Why can't I say when she says it?

Than you can piss off and go to some other forum.

You must be insecure if you are one who is starting the conflict. If you can't even control yourself here I can't even imagine what you are like in real life. Highly doubt you are like this outside the internet since I have a feeling you are a coward. You can't stand up to people outside the internet then you use that frustration here due to how pathetic you are outside the internet.

Interesting, I have the same. Thanks.
Wait so you like it more than DDO?

If I switch to the words, I think all those buttons won't fit there. But I completely agree with you on this one, letters would be definitely better, I will check it again.
Finally something I can have.
We had a long forum discussion on this one somewhere, it's not that simple :(
Tell them you are wrong I am right done. 
Well, hopefully 1 year will be enough to finish all the basic things and maybe after that I'll get to implementing some nice customisation stuff.
Hey that isn't that bad. Can't you ask bsh1 and Virtuoso for help?
DA? Bitch, please! It's DarC and you know it, <3.
Acronyms are not lowercase dumb dumb. DA is debateart. DAC doesn't look as good so DA is the best. DART is too long and yours is one character less. I am saving characters with my innovation you are making people illiterate.

I am not sure, I'll take another look at that. What's the resolution of your screen though?
1366x768
There are also buttons there that are visible only for the mods.
Are you trying to make jealous? It would work if you had letters not icons.
Sure, you can go with whatever you prefer. But other people can also call it however they prefer, I don't want to force DA on everyone.
Wait what? Branding does matter and if people are consistent on what the brand represents then the discussion can be passed the fundamental level. Sure DART is the same as DA but two less characters is two less characters. Imagine how many times someone can say that still mean debateart.com while also not typing in 2 more characters.
Definitely not any time soon I am afraid.
1 year or 5 years or 10 years?

Nope, we are trying to do exactly the opposite actually. Intellectual property and stuff.
Okay.

It used to be like that but it was ugly because the height of the debates are usually much bigger than the height of the sidebar and you end up with lots of empty space on the left.
Can you have an option for that? My heads moves less if I can have all the text in the middle and gaps in the left and right.
If you mean the debate description, then again, it will probably be even bigger at some point once I make it possible to use the rich editing there. I am not sure I see a problem there.
I think it is too big for showing really limited info.
Debate details

Voting period                       One week
Point system                       Four points
Characters per argument   30,000
Just spread that out and that should be fine. There is a huge gaps in the actual one.

It was also like this but then we moved away from it, I believe there wasn't enough space for all the buttons and their texts.
Your sections are a lot bigger than DDO's and they were capable of putting that in. See the "add my favorites" part in debate on DDO to see what I mean.
Everyone calls it differently, I don't think there's one selected version for it.
I am going to go around calling it DA and see if it catches on. Hopefully it does. If not I will start correcting people. Less characters less wasted time. Can you be my source of authority for telling people off for not using DA? I will say "DebateArt.com said it was DA" I think DA looks better than DART or DAC which I never heard anyone use.

Not anytime soon, there are so many other things need to be implemented before we get to things like color customization.
What time frame should I expect if all goes to plan?

@Vader
That's fair. I do want to see this implemented, but I don't think it will soon
The way they are using now is much better than the DDO version. I doubt even having that choice even improves functionality but it might.
True, but Juggle is a big boy. It can ressurect itself if it sees DART(DA) doing good and can sue
Big boy? It is practically d*ad. Resurrect from what? Their finances they barely generate from DDO? DA can replicate not copy. Besides at that point DA won't even lose that much money or even lose any money at all.
Ohh. You can do that I'm pretty sure. I find it more efficent tbh this one vs DDO
I like words. It is easier to recognise compared to an icon if possible.
 It is, but no one cares enough to do it 
Has anyone asked or am I the only one who picked on about this and wanted to type about it?

you can't change colours but they are actually changed, Round 1 is Yellow every time, Round 2 is light-green etc.
No but that is only at the start of that Round not on the side when there is a lot to read you can realise yes this is still in the same Round. 
I mean like customise and as in I don't like orange so I want to change it to be red. I don't like I think it is navy blue so I will change it to look like my PS4 homescreen blue.

Probably the way they coded it. It would take awhile to do something, and he is working on big things to benefit the entire community
I found the way DA does it and it less of a hassle because it is less scrolling.
Juggle would be on our ass then
Replicate it. Besides they are non-existent and you can't add your own inspiration so that it is does not a copy.
?. Elaborate
Like on DDO. Go into a debate and see the add to my favourites button. I want that next to the icon.
I don't think a lot of people care enough about that to fix it
Shouldn't this be easy? I think it would.

Your colour-of-Round suggestion... Is it the colour that's the issue? That is done here with different colours.
I like it on side so that it is more of a signifier of the next Round. I don't expect you guys/gals to put on the side Round 2 or Round 1 on every line but the colour should be enough to identify what Round it is on if people care to remember that slight detail. 
I can change colours? How?

@DebateArt.com
This is not a improvement more so personal preference. Can you guys/gals add a feature that replicates DDO's look? I like the way the debate section was set out. It might be nostalgia but even now I can't shake my positivity towards the way DDO's debate section looks. It is not ecompassing the whole screen and it centred in middle and on the side is other sections of the website. Basically my problem is that it is a bit too wide for me. I liked the gaps on the side so that words were centred in the middle. I also like that strip they have where it signifies what Round I am on. Blue is Round 2 Red is Round 1. I don't also like how big the debate details is. I think you guys/gals can make it shorter. I like the icons like below debate details they are consistent. (RationalMadman said you can't copy DDO to avoid copyright but would like the take from God)
 
I like words more than colours and icons and was hoping you add more words in the debate section. One example is the yellow star. Can you add the text "Add it to favourites"? 
The font would also be more consistent if all the words used used the same font as the debateart.com logo on the top left. I think it looks better. The worst example would be when in a debate section you see the title of the debate which is a different font compared to everything else. If you changed to be more consistent then I would be happy. 

Can't you call yourself DA instead of DART? Nit picky but had it on my mind. 
Why did you guys pick Blue and orange? Was blue and red taken? Can you add like a customisation feature so that I can choose what colours I like to most to colour the site?
Another improvement can you call this thread "Request Improvements"?
How about having a slider of sorts or like an option to choose classic DA look or "improved" or Readers DA (basically heavily focused on words rather then icons. Can have icons but very few)?
Can't you shove the categories section right next to the left and the in middle the all debates section?

Didn't know there was a thread dedicated to this.

When I have more I'll let you know.
